3 problems KC Chiefs are already dealing with in training camp

Wideout reliability

Let's be direct from the jump: there's no reason to consider this a major problem at the moment. There's plenty of time for young players to emerge and so much really cannot be known until the start of the regular season when actual games are played and production counts.

Still, the way the preseason is beginning is not exactly what the Chiefs wanted to see from the wide receiver corps—at least in part. Yes, Rashee Rice is looking good for a rookie and Skyy Moore looks ripe for more targets. Justyn Ross is also making people jump on board that hype train, and Richie James seems to have claimed the return role for himself. These are good things.

On the flip side, Kadarius Toney has already missed all of training camp due to an injury that could easily carry over into the regular season for more than one week. The player that Veach referred to as WR1 coming into the season now might be working himself into game shape well into the fall months and a position that was already unproven or untested looks even more so.

Can the Chiefs depend on what they have? The frustration lies in the fact that there was documented interest in JuJu Smith-Schuster's return or chasing the likes of Odell Beckham Jr. or DeAndre Hopkins in free agency. The Chiefs came away with none off those. That means that the front office agrees that some more reliability is needed in a group that's also lost an impact player.

Here's hoping the kids are ready.
